A Salt Lake businessman is spearheading an effort to build a hospital in Nepal. It's aimed at making a better life for burn victims and children with facial deformities. For two decades, the poorest of the poor in Nepal have been helped by a medical teams sponsored by a charity called Interplast. Besides burn injuries, the Interplast specialty is helping children with cleft lips and palates. The one thing they don't have in Nepal is a permanent modern hospital. That's what brings Rai to Foothill Oriental Rugs in Salt Lake. Owner Jim Webber has imported rugs for years from Nepal. He's leading the effort to build a two-story hospital. http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=4788312
